Many of you disagreed with me, but I thought Lea Michele looked nice in this red Escada gown at the Met Gala a few weeks ago. Some of you thought she looked prom-y, and yeah, you’re right. But I liked the look overall on Lea specifically. I think Lea tends to get too girly and princess-y with her style, so I liked seeing her in a relatively clean silhouette, a bold color, and styled for her features (rather than what was trendy). She was a TV Girl who looked nice, that’s what I thought. As it turns out, Lea had just come out of a massive temper tantrum when we saw her on the red carpet:
Glee’s Lea Michele may have looked like a fairy princess at the recent Met Costume Institute Gala in New York, but behind the scenes, she behaved more like a wicked witch! An insider says she was very upset before hitting the red carpet because “she didn’t want to wear anything her stylist sent her and she hated all the dresses,” which her rep denies.
Annoyed that her stylist was in LA, Lea “just kept saying that she hated everything – she was crying and having a fit!” says the insider.
“You would have thought Lea was the next Queen of England when you saw her having a royal fit,” laughs the insider.
An eye witness adds that while A-listers like Madonna and Sarah Jessica Parker stopped to talk to reporters, Lea stormed past without a word. Sounds like she could use a trip to charm school!

Well, she didn’t really “storm past” anybody because there are enough photos of her at several photo agencies that I know she posed on the red carpet for long enough. Plus, she stopped to talk to Gwyneth Paltrow, who deigned to allow Lea to see the Divine Goop nostrils from a new angle.
So, do I believe this story? Meh. I mean, I don’t believe that Lea “stormed past” but I’ll buy that she had a fashion tantrum. She seems like the type. And she seems like the type to never realize at any point during the tantrum that she’s a B-lister at an A-list event. In other words, most people would be paying attention to other, more important people. That would never occur to Lea though.

I want to believe it 🙂
lol, figures she would hate the gown that actually looked good. You KNOW she wanted to top her past ball gown tragedies. She’s on overdresser who doesn’t have a style.
If she didn’t like the dresses and expressed that she didn’t like them that doesn’t mean she had a tantrum. Whose fault was it that the pick was last minute? That would determine if she was being unreasonable or justified.
This story isn’t bad. I don’t see how hating all of the dresses shown to her is a tantrum. A lot of celebrities have said the same thing about not liking anything. It’s not as if Michelle was throwing dresses around and yelling at everybody.
She looks like a tranny in those pics
Is that Gwyneth’s nipple I see through her dress?
Why have a tantrum? She looked lovely in that dress.
I’ll bring the shovel and we can take turns digging a hole for this bitch to crawl into. She is sooo snorty… I believe this.
MET Gala is THE porn fashion gala so i can understand you become crazy when you dislike your dress
She’s become such a diva, I could believe it. Why so miserable?
LOL at that Goop photo.
I don’t even find her to be pretty. Her attitude and ego just reinforce that. Yuck.
no dress can hide her gumby puppet face. I didnt realize she is that short. still getting bad press every single time she attends anything.
So not liking your costume is an excuse for throwing a temper tantrum? OK, I’ve done it, but I’m not at the Met Frickin’ Gala with the whole world watching. Suck it up or don’t go,Lea.
maybe in some way this chick realizes that once glee is cancelled she may not have much of a career as her fan base isn’t that big, so she wants to suck up the limelight while she can and reacts this way when something goes awry to impede max pr. just my take.
Don’t they have their ensemble picked ahead of time to make sure everything’s tailored and fits properly, matches jewelry, makeup, hair, etc? I have a hard time believing she was picking an outfit-without her stylist there-moments before she showed up. But apparently everyone loves to hate on this girl.
It says she didn’t stop to talk to reporters, not that she didn’t pose for pics.
She’s such a little bitch–can’t stand her.
Since the dress was custom made for her I’m pretty sure it wasn’t a last minute pick. Plus, why is the bitchy story coming out almost a week later? Smells a fish!
I actually think that red dress is horribly cut.
Goopy looks like she got a whiff of her own bs.
I think that red dress looks like it’s inside out. I presume the exposed seams and frayed edges are supposed to be edgy and arty, but I find them to be messy and sloppy.
I think this is the prettiest she has ever looked. The hair, makeup and dress are pretty.
I think at this point people just want to run with the she is an ungrateful bitch stories about Lea. I doubt she is really that bad – i really hope not.
that photograph of lea and goop made me laugh really hard – goop looks SO annoyed! i can almost smell the smugness from here.
….SO….WHAT’S….NEW….??????????
My opinion of her appearance at this event… was that she’d never looked better. Everything (the dress, color, hair & makeup) looked beautiful.
Was the dress she ended up wearing one she didn’t like?
@HM – “Since the dress was custom made for her I’m pretty sure it wasn’t a last minute pick.”
They make it sound as though it was one of us on ‘date night’ rummaging through our closets & rejecting everything. For someone walking the red carpet at a big event like this, there’s no way it wasn’t prepared for her ahead of time.
She looks really lovely here. Too bad about all these stories coming out. What a shame.
It’s nice to see shes’ gaining back her natural curves instead of starving herself. That stick-thin weight-loss did not look good.
Lea is an only child…but I still don’t believe this story. Like someone above said, people just love to hate her. Fans that meet her say she is really sweet! Oh, and #12 Lea has a diamond face shape almost like Katherine Hepburn.
Man, get a nose job already!!
i think that dress is horrible for her body
